Design Concept

Sometimes there are situations when a friendly typeface is too imposing. Sometimes you just want to use a typeface to get the job done. November is a rational, utilitarian typeface inspired by street signage. Unlike most signage types it also handles long texts with ease.

While most tool-based typefaces feature angled terminals, November’s end strokes are always straight, anticipating the following letter, creating distinctive counterspaces that support the visual rhythm of the words.

Widths

November is available in three logical widths, which offer complete typographic palette for the most demanding designers. The Condensed and Compressed versions solve setting long words and sentences next to short words set in the regular width version of November.

Symbols & Arrows

November is ideally suited for the information signage and wayfinding projects, and includes a collection of transportation and travel-related signs, symbols, icons, and various sets of arrows.

International Typography

When the job takes you around the globe, November is ready to go with you. Supporting not only Latin script, but also Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, Armenian, Georgian, Devanagari, and Tamil. November is a font with a global language support ready to get down to business in over 200 languages. Further writing scripts are in development.

OpenType features

Like all Typotheque fonts, November includes Small Caps in all styles. Additionally, November includes a wealth of other advanced OpenType features. For more information please see the PDF instructions, or the Features section.

Alternate Glyphs

Besides the standard lower case a, all versions include also simplified version. Alternate version of the numeral 3 is also available.

Numerals

All weights of November include ten different kinds of numerals. Proportional Lining figures come as default figures in November. It also, however, includes Old-style figures, Tabular numerals (both lining and OsF), Small Caps numerals, superior, inferior, circled and circled inverted numerals (selectable via OpenType features).
